Vegan Muscle?

Vegan athletes get a bad rap from some carnivores who believe that you can only grow muscle if you consume dairy products and meat. But there is a small but growing category of specially formulated vegan products that can be just as beneficial for performance and adding muscle mass as whey. When you want a vegan product to boost your performance at the gym, look for supplements with the following ingredients:

Ginseng: A powerful adaptogen, ginseng strengthens the immune system and helps reduce stress and cortisol levels. Taking it before workouts will allow you to push your body further by delaying muscle fatigue. Ginseng also helps reduce recovery time, making your next training session better, too.

Coconut Oil: Prized as a source of medium-chain triglycerides, which are healthy fats that are used by the body as an energy source and it not readily stored as body fat, coconut oil boosts metabolic rate, immune function and muscle recovery.
